The concept of preventive conservation has successfully introduced the tr
y
n
knowledge that “prevention is better than cure” into the built heritage sector. g
e
The main benefits of this approach are the cost-effectiveness, the improved &
protection of heritage values, the reduced risk for accumulating deterioration Va
n
and additional damage, the prolongation of the physical service life of buildings B
and building parts and the empowerment of local communities in dealing with ale
n
heritage. Increasingly, arguments rise against reactive treatment patterns,
which result too often in postponed interventions and increasing costs for
restoration.
The Civil Engineering Department of KU Leuven, the Raymond Lemaire
International Centre for Conservation and WTA-Nederland-Vlaanderen, jointly
organised an international conference on preventive conservation approaches
— including climate and damage monitoring — and how to implement these
P
monitoring tools within a systemic approach. The conference took place in r
e
context of the international WTA days, 3-5 April 2019, and the 10th anniversary
v
of the UNESCO Chair on Preventive Conservation, Monitoring and Maintenance e
n
of Monuments and Sites (PRECOM³OS).

of three main parts that deal with practice-oriented and practice-based research: s
